I just love the look of clear hobnail with the ruffled milky-white edges.
I collect other types of glassware too but I will have to share those with you on another post. Any other depression glass lovers out there?

The cream and sugar came from a great little antique shop in Alma. (Isn't this a wonderful old limestone building?)

You have some very pretty pieces. My daughters mother in law collects that and has quite a few pieces. I have a couple of pieces and love how the edge takes on a bluish tone on some of them. Thanks for sharing, Sherry
ReplyDeleteI love moonstone too! Thanks for following my photo blog! I hope to see you stop by my foodie/reading/sewing/cats blog too!
ReplyDeleteI love love love depression glass - among many others. I recently received some pink depression glass and two lovely pieces of milk glass - another passion of mine. They came from our oldest daughter's mother-in-law. Before she passed away she asked if I would like the pieces and our son-in-law was honored to bring them to me - they will always be extra special.
ReplyDeleteYour pieces are fabulous!!!! I'd love to see more.
aha...so that is what those pieces are called. I think they are beautiful and love the vintage appeal. You have pretty pieces! woot...!
ReplyDeleteI love your moonstone glassware. I've never seen any before, it probably didn't get out to Australia. I collect green depression glass. There is some from America, but most in Australia originated from England and Europe.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know the name for that type of glassware. It's very pretty. Your blog is looking sweet, too. I love your new header.
ReplyDeleteHave the loveliest day

It is getting harder and harder to find Moonstone in North Carolina. It is a beautiful pattern and it is good to see someone loving it and enjoying it's vintage beauty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dishes! I love them! These pieces are real treasures.

I have seen and heard of this for many years. It used to be very popular and I still think it is a very pretty pattern.
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful and must be a fascinating hobby. I have a friend that collects special glassware but I can't remember the name.
ReplyDeleteI never understood the appeal of Depression glass, but I think that is a pretty pattern.
ReplyDeleteLovely dishes!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday.

I received my first piece of hobnail glass around the age of 16 and have been fascinated with it ever since. I don't have a large collection but the examples I have are very special to me...
ReplyDeleteWow these are wonderful pieces! AND! I am so excited about this part...I have a piece of this that belonged to my grandmother, I think its called a "Bridal Basket" and I have never, ever known the name until I read your post!
ReplyDeleteSo glad I follow you:)

Oh the moonstone glass is beautiful, I'll keep my eye out for you. I know what you mean about the little pink angels I found they give me a warm and fuzzy feeling too. I am not sure I'll be able to sell those! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteI've always though this pattern was very pretty~ so nice to know its name now!
ReplyDeleteI never knew what this is called - nice to have a name to put to a very pretty collection.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely...I've never come across these before..now I'll have to keep my eyes open!

I adore depression glass. I have pink pieces, amber pieces, and lots of green pieces. I'll have to post about more of it later. I love this moonstone pattern. I think I have a piece of that. It's a cigarette box but I use it for my watches on my dresser. Do you know if they made that in this pattern? Your pieces are so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI just love your moonstone pieces...I love all depression glassware and these are especially beautiful with the milky rims.
ReplyDeleteYes...I have my grandmother's pink depression glassware. Later on this fall I intend to share some of it in blog posts. Your pieces are beautiful, Gayle.
ReplyDeleteYes, I collect pink and green depression glass too. I also have the Pfaltzgraff "Folk Art" pattern I see in one of your posts. Thanks for the follow!

ReplyDeleteLove,

I've seen it before, and also didn't know it was called moonstone. My mother has a few pieces, but to her they are just "old dishes".
ReplyDeleteI love VTT, I'd never heard of Moonstone glass ware before. What a lovely collection you have!
ReplyDeleteHappy VTT,
Sally

Hello Daisy, thanks for stopping by neck neck of the woods. I love love that glassware. I have given away most of my things that were my grandparents since I continue to get things from my big family. I have started giving my grands one of our heirlooms when they marry. I still have too much stuff. Come again. Blessings

I learn something every week on VTT. These are great pieces, especially the sugar and creamer. Great post.
ReplyDeleteI've seen this beautiful glassware before but never knew what it is called. It's so very pretty, and how lucky you were to find more pieces.
